There were actually a LOT of gluten free options. The server was very knowledgeable as well. All of the gf items are marked. I got the chicken nachos and they were good and I didn’t get sick. They tasted just like a taco from Taco Bell honestly. My bestfriend got the gluten free Mahi Sandwich and I took a bite of that it was 10/10. I would def get that next time. Note that the fries are gluten free, but not safe for someone with celiac like myself because they’re friend in a shared fryer.

Very good meal, a good about of options on the menu for gf. I had the Mahi sandwich with gf bun, the sides are not gluten free so I got coleslaw. I did get sick but think it is from the sauce I put on the sandwich on my own not anything they recommend. Overall I’m impressed.

Server had zero clue what was gluten free on the menu, they do have gluten free buns for a $2 up charge but not very helpful when she couldn’t recommend even one item that would be gluten free

Fine for gluten sensitive, but cross contamination is likely for those with celiac. They have GF buns for sandwiches and several GF items on the menu, but no dedicated cooking surfaces or fryers. They do have GF adult beverages like ciders and White Claw type drinks. The service is good and the food is as well, though most of the staff are not gluten knowledgeable. Like most of Florida bars, no GF beers! Great place, on the manatee river, I enjoyed it!

Very small gluten free menu. They offer a black bean burger or the beyond/impossible burger with gluten free bun. Our server seemed knowledgeable about gf and cross contamination. Great atmosphere with live music and it’s on the water!
